Re: standby DB

Originally posted by kris123 some operating systems will not allow you to mount two instances with the same database name on the same machine simultaneously

Sounds like Lewis Carrol again (the poem, the name of the poem, what the poem is called etc). Clearly you can not have SID=db_name for both, if the two db's have the same db_name - you must have two different OracleServiceSID services. I think that's all on the OS side. (On the Oracle side you may want different global_ and service_names. The db_name will be the same since you will copy the db.)

I don't quite get this. I reboot (well, morning startup/ afternoon shutdown) my laptop with Windoze and 9i DaytaGuard setup daily (actualy, sometimes it's more than once a day, when I do office-customer-home-or_something_like_that trips with it), so what's the problem with re-booting?

This is a know bug in the current version of marist (89.0.1.19.74) - any post mentioning Windows provokes a random reply contaning the word "re-boot", a trace file is also generated on /dev/null. It is claimed that this is fixed in marist90. (As usual, searching on MeatLink will give you no information at all about this.)
